Cozying up to Russia’s Putin and alienating the Prime Minister of vital
US ally Australia.

Claiming in Tweets and public statements, contrary to all available
evidence and expert opinion, that he would have won the popular vote had there
not been several million fraudulent votes in favor of Clinton.

Banning legal residents of the US (green card holders) from entering
the US if they were citizens of one of the seven Muslim majority states from
whom he had banned all immigrants for 90 days.

The amateurism of
Trump’s administration is also plainly seen in the administration’s focus on
Trump’s ego instead of the people. Illustratively,

His Holocaust Day statement omitted any mention of the Jewish Holocaust
and he used his meeting with Africa-American leaders intended to mark the
beginning of Black History Month as an opportunity to denounce the media.

British Prime Minister Teresa May in her joint news conference with
trump blatantly pandered to Trump’s ego, something Trump appeared to enjoy.

Most importantly for
me as a Christian, Trump’s amateurism is evident in his superficial
understanding of Christianity:

Speaking at the
National Prayer Breakfast, Trump unethically belittled the performance of Arnold
Schwarzenegger as the new host of “The Apprentice” and asks attendees to pray
for the show’s ratings while largely ignoring the more profound moral
challenges facing the nation.

In his inaugural
speech, Trump calls for policies that put America
first, having taken the oath of office placing his hand on two Bibles (one
apparently is insufficient!), implicitly contradicting Jesus’ fundamental teachings
to love our neighbor and that all people, regardless of religion or
nationality, are our neighbors.

Consistently preferring “alternative facts,” ad hominem attacks, and
other fallacious forms of discourse to engaging in constructive public
discourse.

Amateurism in the White House will not last very long. Trump and his
minions will develop some level of professional, their amateurism will lead to
impeachment, or their amateurism will have major, disastrous national or
international consequences.
